I listen to this on the podcast in my car and found myself sat on the drive laughing my head off until my wife came out and asked what I had been doing for the last twenty minutes. Amazing content!

You know it’s good when they come out from the house wondering what you’re doing 😂
Family of story-tellers. Love those trucking and life stories.
Oh man, these stories are so gripping! I couldn't believe that older man was able to get you on top of that hill, God bless him. Can't wait to hear more! 👏

36:09 Elk, camels, swans...WOW! The Allens believe in DIVERSITY! 🤣🤣😎😎 Jaxon's impression of a 'Screaming Jimmy' was a highlight... And now? We need to meet the missing bruh-link: where is Colton? 🤔🤔🤔❔
A credit to Rooster and Woo’s parenting that all the boys were equally worked (and periodically traumatized). Usually the baby of the family is catered to. Love all the stories, reminds me of how I grew up. Look forward to the next episode!

So many great stories about Cummins motors wow. This week alone I have heard of several trucks saving the day with there power. Looking forward to the next half of this yall stay blessed and humble👊🙏😎
Your family continues to delight!
Another good talk!
Theysay "97" like thats an old truck. I still drive a 96, Hahaha!
I could literally sit all night and listen to y’all all night. By far the best, most entertaining podcast ever! Weston certainly is not what I was expecting but is great also. I only have two questions for him;1: How can you stand to be a lawyer! 2: How can you stand to live in California? We had the home ranch and then the summer grazing range in the mountains but we didn’t truck our cattle, we herded them all the way to the mountain range. A lot less stress than y’all had to deal with, and at the time a whole lot of fun for me. Just give me a good ol’ 4&1/4 Kitty Cat in a semi !! They’re the best! Got stopped doing 72 uphill in a 55 zone south of Beatty, Nevada.The officer told us he was going to have us stopped in Beaty for a 24 hour stay. Fortunately every LEO in 3 counties was busy escorting 4 giant haul pak trucks to a mine near Tonopah Nevada so we just scooted right through good ol’ Beatty and kept truckin’ on up to Fallon to our drop off. Can’t wait for the next episode! I love y’all! God bless you all and keep you safe ❤️🙏

@Wild Wild West im trying im broke down again sitting i. Grand Junction Colorado for a week....lol never ends
Lol my brother showed me how to shoot 22 bullets off the roof with a sling shot it was a lot of fun untill 1 wissed by my face i look behind me and my brother was gone im pretty shure he was trying to get rid of me lol. Brothers can be funny sometimes. Or maybe he was smart i haven't figured it out yet. Probably why we still dont get along well 1 of the reasons ha ha👊🙏😎 I will never forget that sound 😂
Weed man could always be because that boy is growing like a weed😄
Well jax was another day at work. I pulled 4 heater units out of containers, the heater the fuel tank and tank brackets ect. If any one wonders, a heater unit is like a reefer unit. They are mounted on the front of a container or trailer inside a hole cut out for them and are bolted in. They have a small deisel motor in the box that runs and the say Radiator for it is on the back side and the warm air is blown into the trailer or container rather than out side. Any way we pull them out and cover the holes to make storage containers ect. Durring the day the ??? able drivers came in and went out of the yard. Now the drive way is like 30 or so feet wide. So is not difficult to go in or out of the yard. However it is so amazing how many of them ????able drivers will sit and spin and spin on the ice in the gate way rather than reach the 6 or so inches and lock in their diff locks to help them get moving. Best fun waching them come in and go sliding Sideways half way down the yard. Me and mike always bet if they gonna spin or not, or how far they will go sliding? Lol hey is fun. Lol me i just take the 3 mins to help polish it up burnin a couple Douhgnuts with my pickup. Lol
My grand parents live just outside Winifred probably not to far from you guys. Dennis and Helen Heller.

Small world love the content keep up the good work.
PS shaman from ancient hebrew root means : to make shine. Shamanish by extension : to make kind of shiney? 😄
I'm catching up on a few podcasts. I thought you called Freddy Weeds because he's growing like a weed.
A buddy is building a 12v71 day cab single axel as you speak.
Since this pod cast is about more than trucking, I feel like the name of it should be changed... maybe something like "The Allen's, featuring the Jax"

😂 That would’ve been a great name for a band, guess a podcast will have to suffice.
What's up stoner 😂
